Former Ohio Governor John Kasich was one of the many people who praised Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show yesterday. There's no way Kasich had any idea who Bad Bunny is until a staffer told him.
Love the halftime show which celebrates the wonderful Latino culture. Great pick and great show. Bad Bunny hit a grand slam home run!

If Kasich wants to "celebrate the wonderful Latino culture," he probably should have checked out the lyrics of what Bad Bunny was singing first.
Here's some of them, and we'll warn you, they are most definitely not safe for work:

Kasich is literally a meme.

This is true. And this is how you know Bad Bunny's show was, well, bad. All the people who are seal-clapping about how incredible it was don't really mean it. Including Kasich.
